My last point of interest stop on the tour was New Harmony, Indiana. Founded in 1818, by the Harmonic Society, it was one of the early attempts at a religious utopia in the US. They were known for making quality goods like furniture & cloth. After less the 10 years they moved to Western Pennsylvania, selling true town to a group that tried to create a secular utopia. That attempt didn't last 3 years.
